Are you ready to chat with foreigners?
Obviously I only needed a coat last weekend, but I can't wait to take out all my down jackets these days! In the face of the sudden drop in temperature, I recently took out my mobile phone index to watch the weather forecast. At this time, I was thirsty for knowledge (Bu Yaolian) and suddenly thought of a question: How can foreigners on the other side of the ocean talk about the weather in their own country when we lament each other's "cold crying" and "hot death" in winter or summer? In this issue, I will show you how to talk about the weather in English.
First, common expressions
For us who have just entered the winter, this statement is really appropriate. How do foreigners express "cold"
1) froze to death.
This statement is probably the corresponding version of "freezing".
2) You can see your own breath.
"You can see the white breath you exhale." This expression is very vivid. When the weather is colder and we can see "white gas", we might as well talk about it in front of your friends.
You need to dress warmly.
"You have to wrap yourself up." This statement is similar to the expression in Chinese, and it just expresses my recent feelings.
It's a little cold.
"It's a little cold." Compared with the above three, this statement is much milder and can be used to describe the autumn weather, especially the autumn morning.
If cold days meet rainy days, the lethality will be too great. Imagine how depressed you are when you finally get out of bed in the winter morning and see the sky outside the window gloomy and raining.
1) It is raining in Mao Mao at the moment.
"It's raining lightly now." The rain in Mao Mao is a continuous rain in Mao Mao.
2) it is splitting.
This statement is lighter than the last one, indicating that it doesn't really rain, just occasional sporadic raindrops.
3) Heaven has opened.
4) It put it down.
These two expressions describe particularly heavy rain. I believe many friends have learned the phrase "it's raining cats and dogs", and now they can update their corpus.
After a while, friends in the north should be able to see this scene. Look at what you said besides "It's snowing".
1)? There is a little frost on the ground.
"There is some frost on the ground." This is a common sight in winter mornings.
It snowed for a while.
"It snowed for a while."
3) below zero.
"The temperature is below zero now."
4) Snow will turn into a snowstorm.
"There will be more snow and a snowstorm." The famous blizzard game company is called Blizzard.
1) The top of the head is very cloudy and dark.
"The sky is very gloomy." There is a popular lyric that says to learn to experience sunny days and rainy days. It's cloudy now.
A storm is coming.
3) I can see lightning.
I can hear thunder.
"The storm is coming! There is lightning and thunderstorm, put away your clothes! " ("A Chinese Odyssey" Luo Jiaying tone)
5) The wind is stronger. Almost a strong wind.
"The wind is getting stronger and stronger." "Gale" means "gale, gale" and "Grade 9 wind" means "strong wind".
After the storm, we finally ushered in a sunny day. See what foreigners say.
There is not a cloud in the sky.
There is not a cloud in the sky. Seeing this statement, I thought of that powerful word: Wan Li is cloudless.
It's very hot.
"The weather is very hot." "bake" means "bake, bake (bread, snacks, etc.). ) ",isn't it very vivid?
3) completely still.
"There is no wind at all."
It's very hot today.
5) It's boiling.
Both of these expressions describe extremely hot weather, which is comparable to and even hotter than "roasting heat" and can be said to be the corresponding version of "hot death".
Second, initiate a session.
Above we learned some English expressions about the weather. However, careful students may find a problem: these are all descriptions or answers made after the dialogue is initiated. So, if you want to ask someone what the weather is like, what should you say? Don't worry, I'll take you to see the common saying about the weather.
1. What's the weather like?
What's the weather like outside?
These two can be said to be the most common questions, and I think they can be divided into the general version of "What's the weather like?" And the grounded version of "How is the sky?
3. Do you have rain?
"Is it raining over there?" This sentence can not only ask about the weather, but also be used as the lyrics of sad love songs.
What's the temperature today/there?
"What's the temperature in your place today?"
5. Nice weather, isn't it?
"It's a beautiful day, isn't it?" This sentence can be said to be a common greeting.
6. What's the weather forecast?
"What does the weather forecast say?"
7. What's the weather forecast for tomorrow?
"What's the weather forecast for tomorrow?"
Well, after this period of study, I believe all my friends can have a basic conversation about the weather in English. However, this issue only involves daily expressions. If you want to know some professional weather expressions, please pay attention to the follow-up topics about the weather in the official WeChat account. Finally, I want to remind everyone: it's cold, please put on long autumn clothes and trousers!
